Need some info for the Thanksgiving gang that is coming with us to White Sands.Availability of a couple things either at the stores or at duty free on our way in,Makers Mark,Kettle One ,Absolute or Grey Goose vodka's,Diet Cranberry ,and Club soda.All things our travelors can bring but they would rather buy there and they don't care about the cost!Thanks so much for any help,BillNJaws:friendly_wink:
Mega-Mart on the way out of Mobay. Probably your best bet.
There's a duty free liquor store on the arrival side of the airport wher you can get the liquorQuote:

Also a nice selection of bakery items, fresh food, frozen foods, household goods, and on and on.
You can bring in some of the higher end liquors in your checked luggage just in case you can not find your required brands in Jamaica. We usually repackage our favorites that come in glass bottles into empty liter plastic soda bottles (and put them inside of a gallon ziplock bag) to avoid the repeat of a unpleasant surprise of a broken bottle upon arrival.
That is a great tip !! Will likely do both .. bring some and buy some ..Quote:

Yes the duty free liquor store on the arrival side of the airport after you exit immigration has about the cheapest prices on booze in Jamaica.....Quote:

Myers Rum is hard to find now and it's over $2,000J's for a Liter bottle..use to be $1,050J 4 years ago at L&M Market
JB White Overproof Rum that all the locals drink is over $2,000J's a bottle now....use to be $1,500J just 18 months ago....
mi personally favor the Wrey & Nephew Captain Morgan blended gold rum for around $1,200J a bottle....
don't get it confused with the Captain Morgan Spice Rum you can buy in N America....totally different
mi favor it more than Myers Dark Rum and it's a lot less money.....most of the stores in Negril have it
only thing cheap these days in Negril is the ganja and the red plate route taxis......that's about it

Thank you for all the help everyone,only i didn't hear was if there is Makers Mark available any place!
I have seen it in Mega Mart...
I was also wondering where to pick up some bourbon or rye. Mega Mart is on the way to Negril?
